Nevertheless, the FBI has been operating on the assumption that it was produced by a disgruntled American scientist, perhaps in a basement. The FBI wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars investigating the possibility that the anthrax letters were packaged underwater in a Maryland pond in a special device of some sort.

This is old news. I read an article in the LA Times almost a year ago that said the FBI made a mistake in pursuing the domestic terrorist angle. The antrhax was clearly state sponsored, but they wasted valuable time looking at domestic suspects. It was well known that Iraq had a sohpisticated Antrax program.

I think I read the Science article. Someone posted it. It said the American scientists could only recreate it using very sophisticated processes.

It may be old news, but about the only place it's being reported is here in FreeRepublic. The FBI will never get off their butts if they aren't prodded on this. Sessions is either a moron or a traitor. He has not put a leash on a single one of the clintonoids at the top of the bureau.

Make me a case as to why Iraq had a specific beef against Daschle and Leahy, out of the hundreds of prominent government figures they could have sent letters to.
